Teaching punctuation has never been easier than with this Year 6 Using Colons and Semi-colons Teaching PPT. First teaching how to introduce a list in a sentence with a colon, this presentation then moves on to using a semi-colon instead of a comma in more complex lists.
With a sequenced teaching structure, children are shown modelled examples of questions which link directly to the teaching. The answers are also provided for you to discuss with your pupils.
Ideal for use with your whole class, this PPT can help you to structure the teaching of how to use colons and semi-colons in sentences with lists.
